Indian salary conversion

[km_india]

Hello Gurus,

I have a very urgent query regarding Salary and earnings.

I am applying in the following category:

TIER 1 (GENERAL)
I was working on UK Work permit from an Indian IT company for 1.5yrs and during this period I was paid an Indian salary as well as UK Allowances.

In the 12 months for which I am claiming my earnings I have the following scenraio:

INDIAN SALARY -- Salary Slips paid in INR say Rs 40,000 per month Gross income. For 12 months this amount is say Rs 4,80,000.
This amount was converted every month to GBP and paid in my UK bank account in GBP. But the salary slips still show INR amounts.

UK Allowances -- UK Allowances paid in GBP every month, say 2000£. For 12 months, this amount = £24000.

Now, My query is,

What amount do I have to for my Indian salary as my earning??? Is it Rs 40,000/pm which is Rs 4,80,000 for 12 months. This will mean, I will have to apply the multiplication factor calculations which is (4,80,000/currency conversion rate) x 5.3.
OR

Do I have to show the converted amount in GBP as my INDIAN SALARY. Which is Rs 4,80,000/currency conversion rate.


Please help in this regard. This is very urgent as I am not sure if I qualify for applying.

Thanks and Best Regards.

As you were working in the UK, you cannot apply the uplift factor. When answering the question of "where you earned the money" on the calculator, you have to enter the UK which will also indicate that you can only convert and not uplift your salary.

Yes you can only uplift you INDIAN salary only if it was earned when u was physically present in India. In your case NO you can't uplift it.

What about the taxes paid in UK, as my company pay taxes on my behalf? Since i don't know the tax paid by company; Is there a way to convert this amount to gross in UK?

Look at your payslip. It should indicate your gross amount and amount paid in tax.

[aspirant2011]

My payslip actually doesnt show the gross and net pay.All they show is the salary I take home which is net. Also what about some company perks like I get reimbursed for phone, net etc etc. Also I have a company owned car and my employer have spent on everything from my driving license, insurance to the regular upkeep. So can that we counted towards gross?

You cannot include reimbursements. You have a big problem if your payslips don't show gross, because how are you going to prove to Home Office what your gross salary is?
